Locksmith opens Sargent Lock & Safe

Raise your hand if you’ve lost a set of car keys lately. Locked yourself out of your house perhaps? Forgot the combination to that ancient safe that’s collecting dust in the basement?

Owner Travis Powell is an experienced locksmith and computer guru who says he’s excited to swing open the doors and help Brandonites get in when they’ve been shut out.
